Rising up the crystal dome

of life before the final war

Breaks the waves of sea and air

to save us from a deadly fall

Coming up from far below

Ocean floors unknown to man

The Sentinel waited silently

Until the time was right again



Civilization's seeds

Sown so very long ago

Almost ripened to their peak

But how were they supposed to know

Nurtured very carefully

Guided on their preset path

The Sentinel waited silently

But his experiment went wrong



The eyes of the world looked in fright

To the seas ablaze with light

And it moved ever closer



Round the World

Machines they all stood still

Fingers reaching out as one

Poised in fear obliged to kill

Continents united

Against the common foe

The fist and last occasion

But the fools would never know



Alpha and omega

The first-born and the last

The vast dome of Atlantis

Cracked and shuddered beneath the blast

Sinking back to whence they came

The young could not realize

The original plan would now succeed

Due to their selfless sacrifice



The sea boiled again

As Atlantis descends to its place far below

Now the World has joined hands as one



All the World now

Join their hands as one
